Quick And Easy Chicken Tortilla Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Wash chicken. Place chicken and chicken stock into a 6 or 8 quart stock pot; cover. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat and simmer for 25 to 30 minutes, until chicken is done.
• Remove chicken from pot and place on a cutting board.
• Add pico de gallo salsa, corn, black beans and tortilla chips to the stock pot.
• Dice chicken and add back into soup. Stir well; bring to a boil and simmer, covered, for 10 to 15 minutes. Season to taste with salt & pepper, cumin and chili powder.
• Serve while hot. Also good reheated the next day.

Steps:

Steps:

• For the soup: In the same pot, add the cumin, paprika, jalapeños, onion and salt and pepper to taste. Cook until the veggies are soft and tender, about 8 minutes. Add the stock and diced tomatoes and green chiles. Bring to a simmer. Add the chicken and simmer until the chicken is warmed through.
• For serving: Serve in bowls with a pile of the fried tortilla strips and some yogurt and hot sauce, if desired, on the side.
